Slip on your favorite belted trench, Burberry beauty babes, and walk with me while we take a peek at Burberry Beauty’s collection for Spring/Summer 2012.

Since entering the beauty biz in July of 2010, Burberry’s beauty products have emulated their iconic fashion sense with clean, classic, timeless colors and packaging that smacks of class. Look elsewhere for crazy Kesha glitter, because this look is all about natural beauty with elegant pops of panache.

This season, the brand celebrates summers in Britain with shiny, bright, warm shades for lips, neutral colors for eyes and dewy finishes for faces and cheeks. The 12-piece collection showcases seven new shades and three re-promoted colors, and it’s available now online and at select Nordstrom stores.

FYI, San Francisco Bay Area Burberry fans, a new Burberry Beauty counter is coming to the Walnut Creek Nordstrom store, opening in mid-to-late February, so you won’t have to trek all the way to Union Square in San Francisco to get your Burberry on, yay!

Here are pics and swatches of six of the seven new shades. If you frequently fancy Chanel and Trish McEvoy, you may find yourself craving these products as well, especially if you like neutral eyes and pretty pink lips (that here seem a little bit brighter than usual for the brand).

Stay tuned for looks and detailed reviews over the next few days, but for now, let me know what you think.

Also for South Bay/Peninsula Burberry nuts (like me) Stanford Shopping Center has a counter :). The SAs are really nice too (also the tall blond lady, didn’t get her name, from the Chanel counter next to it) :).FadBurger recently posted … Burberry Rosewood Eyeshadow Single

It’s beautiful! I love the Hibiscus gloss and the whole line looks like my kind of wearable. Speaking of Walnut Creek, it was the “scene of the crime” on Alcatraz last night. Have you been watching? I would know this if I had been able to check in more often! 🙂

I know – I’ve been missing you too! I’ve been trying to check in and speed read from home but it’s been crazy (and, what is the world coming to when work is too busy to comment on your favorite blog once per day?). 🙂

Alcatraz is from JJ Abrams and stars Hurley from Lost. It’s got a very Lost feel to it but the premise is that when Alcatraz shut down, all the baddies disappeared into thin air. Now, they’re coming back (un-aged) to commit crime again. Sam Neil stars as well. It’s pretty good!

It does! I haven’t seen one of my besties in 2 weeks and she literally lives a mile away. Thankfully things seem to be settling down a bit. 🙂

It’s on Monday nights on FOX; there have only been 2 eps so far but it looks like it might be a winner. I’m sure you’ll pick out a lot of local stuff, which is so cool.

Things are hockey-filled as usual, but they’re good. I can’t even imagine how you do it. I’m coming here and speed-reading to keep up on your posts, and you’re actually testing products and WRITING them all! I don’t think you can ever hear this too much: you do an amazing job! 🙂

Hibiscus is a very pigmented sheer gloss, if that makes any sense. It’s like a pigmented “jelly” nail polish for your lips, I love it so much…I wish it wasn’t LE, I can see it being something I use all the time and rebuy when I finish it (IF I finish it).Tammie recently posted … Burberry Rosewood Eyeshadow Single
